An ok family resort Cuisine: We aren’t very big “foodies” and don’t wine and dine around for the finest food. We are very basic and were pretty disappointed in the food. We were only able to get to the international buffet. The other buffet wasn’t worth it compared. Expect long wait to get any drink and don’t expect to be offered a refill. Expect to see a lot of wildlife. We didn’t mind and they didn’t mind us. Workers are working so hard to keep this mini village alive and clean. I can’t imagine the work that goes into maintaining it here. Expect to walk.. lots. It’s very rare to get a room close to the pool/beach or the water park. Aqua park: this is the main reason we booked here. We have two young children and we knew they would be busy there for hours. There was 3 main waterslide areas. The main area tailored to small children, the mid level, and the bigger water slides. We had no idea there was height requirements for the slides. We weren’t able to go on the small and mid level even with our nervous kids. Which was a let down. Our 7 year old couldn’t go on the big ones and was super disappointed the others were to amateur for his age. We weren’t really sure why he couldn’t go on those since most of the big ones you’d see in a standard hotel. Beach: very rocky. Wear water shoes or take your time. Weather: we travelled mid Dec and only had one sunny day out of 7. Make sure you take the umbrellas they have in the rooms! Most workers don’t speak English so trying t

The service wasn’t good at all, hard to get food and the only food you can get after 11 is burrito, and they weren’t very good. My kid was starving and we couldn’t get room service. We have to have a black bracelet. My last resort I stayed at you can get room service anytime doesn’t matter what kind of bracelet you have.. there was no snacks or food in our room only on the first day of arrival. Would not recommend staying here and will not be staying here again.

We loved the wildlife roaming around the property! Resort was clean - there is always somebody leaf blowing/removing beaches and water. Housekeeping came every day and rooms were cleaned wonderfully. Mini bar stocked every second day. Pools were clean and fun ! Will stay here again :)

This property was a great experience for our family. The kids loved the wildlife roaming free and the aquapark (even though the big slides weren't working) along with the variety of shows offered. Would recommend to those with children, but not as an adults only trip.

Everything about the hotel was ok, staff were kind, food was OK, rooms were clean, good place for families to have a good time. One thing that was very annoying was the aqua park. Reason number one why we booked was because of aqua park, we showed up and half of it was closed, it was not mentioned anywhere in website, no one told us, they were happy to advertise the water park being open, take our money and when we got there it was no one's fault, that was very disappointing.

The main reason I booked this hotel was for the large water slides for my older kids and without notice they were closed our entire visit. For this reason alone I would not have booked this resort. We were also told by many employees that it has been shut down for over a month. Also the food throughout the property was not very good. Additionally we were not given any instructions about this hotel upon checkin like there is an app to reserve meals so we missed out on all but one restaurant and had a very difficult time navigating the property. Very limited shuttle service and if you want your hotel cards you must listen to their pushy speech about buying into their members club. Lastly we had very limited water/hot water, many things broken throughout the room my husband luckily had a pocket screwdriver in his luggage to fix some things. Oh and we had a half drank soda in our fridge upon checkin. The rooms were nice but lacking hot water. The property is like a giant maze, food 1 maybe 2 stars not good, and if the main waterslides are closed without notice huge disappointment. Beach hear is extremely rocky many kids including mine got hurt warning!

Overall this is a really cool resort for families with kids which is unique being an eco resort. You feel like you are in the rainforest and have monkey, coatee, raccoons and agati visitors and lush greenery. The staff do a wonderful job of maintaining the rainforest and property and were so friendly. We thought the food was good at the buffet and one of the restaurants. The big issue was we didn't have hot water in our room and all I wanted at the end of the day was a hot shower. It also made showering the kids very difficult. The other thing is you can only send your kids to kids club for 2hrs/day. Not that we would send them every day but it wasn't long enough to do anything by the time you walked there and back. We would consider going back with our kids but likely not, however we are glad we did go. I don't think we would have enjoyed it as much if we didn't have kids.
